             Summary: Cluster.close() is not called by mapreduce.Job
                 Key: MAPREDUCE-5320
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5320
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.0.4-alpha
            Reporter: Josh Rosen
            Assignee: Chris Douglas


For MapReduce jobs run through mapreduce.Job.waitForCompletion(), 
Cluster.close() never seems to get called.

I noticed this problem in my own customized MapReduce environment, which uses a 
custom ClientProtocolProvider.  My provider creates ClientProtocol instances 
that contain resources that need to be cleaned up, such as thread pools.

Cluster.close() calls ClientProtocolProvider.close(ClientProtocol), which 
should clean up these resources.  Cluster.close() is called by mapred.JobClient 
code and by the CLI, but it doesn't seem to get called for jobs started through 
mapred.Job.waitForCompletion().  This leads to resource leaks in my application.

This seems like a bug, since mapreduce.Job creates a resource (the Cluster 
instance) that it never cleans up.
